Gettin' There

Last night, I finally got the chance to pull out my knitting and relax for more than a few minutes. I'm making good progress on my February Lady Sweater; I've probably got only another couple of inches of the lace before I start the lower hem of the body.

I'm planning on getting out my wheel again soon, too, especially because I may have made some fiber purchases at a couple onlineretailers today -- I'm entitled to treat myself to a little housewarming present, right?

We are getting closer to making the house presentable, too. Last night my brother-in-law came over and helped us hang a few pieces of art, and this evening I put out nearly all the trash generated from unpacking. I walked home from work today -- it took me less time than it used to take to drive home -- and it was very pleasant except for the giant blister I got on my right foot. More comfortable shoes are planned for tomorrow.

Well of *course* you're entitled to a housewarming present. And a reward for setting up the house so quickly. And an incentive to finish unpacking. And a prize for saving gas since you can walk to work...
